Abstract
The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulatory system is involved in neuroimmune regulation, cerebral detoxification, and delivery of various endogenous and exogenous substances. In conjunction with the choroid plexuses, which form the main barrier site between blood and CSF, this fluid participates in controlling the environment of the developing brain. The lack of comprehensive data on developmental changes in CSF volume and distribution impairs our understanding of CSF contribution to brain development, and limits the interpretation of blood-CSF permeability data. To address these issues, we describe the evolution of the CSF circulatory system during the perinatal period and have quantified the volume of the different ventricular, cisternal and subarachnoid CSF compartments at three ages in developing rats. Immunohistofluorescence was used to visualize tight junctions in parenchymal and meningeal vessels, and in choroid plexus epithelium of 19-day fetal rats. A quantitative method based on serial sectioning of frozen head and surface measurements at the cutting plane was used to determine the volume of twenty different CSF compartments in rat brain on embryonic day 19 (E19), and postnatal days 2 (P2) and 9 (P9). Blood-CSF permeab...Continue Reading
